I grew up in Kuching, Malaysia on the tropical island of Borneo and if I had to choose one cuisine for the rest of my life, it’s definitely Japanese and a fun fact that not many people know is that I am one of 51 cousins on my father’s side.

My favourite movie is Jurassic Park. It’s still the best dinosaur movie ever. PS I read the book, it’s just as good!

My ideal way to spend some time off is, if I’m not training, I like to try new food places. I’m very open-minded about food, and I’ve always been very keen to try different cuisines.

What drew me to the fitness industry is that I used to be a smoker. One day I quit and never looked back. Exercise kept the cravings and withdrawal symptoms away. I joined the industry because I believed that I could make a positive change in other people’s lives, just as I did in mine.
